Occasionally, clients with already established businesses hire me to design a brand and website refresh. Brand and Website refreshes can be totally necessary at times for a business to continue growing and reaching their ideal client.

In this post, I’m walking you through my process for designing my very own brand and website refresh for One Nine Design Co.

Shauna Mooney first approached me in March of 2017 to assist her with branding and web design for her lifestyle + travel blog, focused on exploring cool places, eating good food (and cocktails!), feeling pretty, having fun, and sprinkling pixie dust on everything…she’s a Disney World fanatic! She also refers to herself as a “stuntwife” because she’s like a housewife, but she is never home since her husband is literally a stuntman! How freaking cool is that?!

And when she mentioned that she was SCAD alumni, I just knew we had to work together!

One of my favorite things about working with design clients, is not only when I get to design their brand, but also when they allow me to take that beautiful new brand and implement online.

I was thrilled when Mary Elaine and Brett Baker approached me this past spring to do just that. Not only are they a fellow military family, but Mary Elaine and I have worked on past styled shoots together, so we already knew we’d be a great fit working together.

I remember feeling so comfortable around Hillary the first time we met, and I just knew that she was the doula we had been searching for.

Shortly after our first meeting, I had the pleasure of designing a full rebrand for her business. It was such a joy to design pregnancy and birth imagery for her brand during such a special time in my life. You could say I had the ultimate inspiration!

I first met Rachel, owner of Rachel Strickland Photography, when she photographed our Christmas themed maternity photos in 2014, and we have been friends and collaborators ever since! We've worked on a few styled shoots and a portrait commission for her late grandfather, and she has photographed nearly every milestone for our family in the past 3 years.

Of course, I was thrilled when she asked me to help her rebrand her photography business!
